Wow. Running scared of my European Flyweight champion Mark Duffy. The fight all the Irish fans want to see. :deal
Alright then. We will make the fight. Straight after the unification for all the straps, how does that sound????
 
No it's still down as an eliminator mate.
Actually it depends. Oscar O'Sullivan, who sparked your boy out, is mandatory to the WBC. If he wins that, I might unify with him for all the baubles.

What an era for Irish flyweights!

O'Sullivan beat Duffy when we were novices and has ducked him ever since. Duffy just iced a man for the European title. These flyweights are running scared of Duffy. Simple as that.
 
Do you still get the manager's fee when the fights are on a show you promote @Rooq? Is it 30%?
No you dont get mgr fee on purses you are paying yourself

Its assumed you are just getting the show profit.

O'Sullivan is world ranked and in a better position than Duffy is to challenge for a world title.

We might give you the shot though. Depends on whether you're willing to take shit money for a shot at the champ.
@Rooq Pleeeeeeease let us keep these fighters! I'm attached to my Irish legend now.

It wouldn't be that fair if we kept them to be honest. I am trying not to get attached to any of my fighters, but I've got lads called "Canedo" and "Thorman" who are good boys.

What if we could just keep one when we start afresh? :yep
 
Tbh I might wipe everything and recreate the game data from scratch. Ive made a few changes since populating the game, so a fresh start would probably have more realistic data
 
Rooq, i was thinking. While the 4 or 6 hour days are perfect (imo) for the game when it starts for real, but why are we doing that for the beta test? I mean, for the most part we're just waiting, which makes it more difficult to give any real feedback imo.
As i understand it, the purpose of us doing the beta testing is to find flaws and make suggestions to what could be better etc, but with the game moving so slowly, i do think that makes it a bit unnecessarily hard to get a real feel for the game and give more constructive feedback.

Anyway, that's just my opinion, and it sure isn't a criticism of the game itself, just the beta testing part. Not sure if the others will agree or not.

i just realised the fight hasnt been made yet. Eliminators are upgraded to mandatories after the fight has been made - when making the fight it is still treated as an eliminator in terms of the fighters purse demands, but once the fight has been scheduled, you should get a message saying that it will be for the vacant title. i can see this one has gone to purse bids, and i dont think this scenario has been tested for a purse bid, so i will be interested to see what happens

thats true. i may start accelarating at some point, and I am running the odd adhoc end of day when i have a bug fix to release.
but right now i have so many things to fix and enhance, i'd rather leave it as it is for at least a few more days

Wouldn't that mean that the promoter gets a world title fight for the price of an eliminator?

Yeah, I agree.

I'm not sure if it's possible but it would be best running at a quicker speed but then pausing it overnight so not too much is missed.

yep..but remember the champion might vacate after an eliminator has already been made and is just waiting to for the fight to happen. in this scenario, the eliminator will also become for the vacant title but purses have already been agreed.
